1) you're cheating
2) you're doing what I do after I've changed the battery on 4 of the 6 Cateye Astrale's I unfortunately own - they reset odometer to zero so it takes me about 10 magnets until I catch up. Somehow the Astrale models from 1994 work just fine as does the cheaper Mity which are all able to retain their odo during a battery change.
3) Cateye Astrale can only read a max speed on 186mph.
